Poiesis somática

Análisis de la situación de la arquitectura contemporánea, tanto en el plano de las ideas como en el de las realizaciones. Se pretende intervenir críticamente en la dialéctica de continuidad-ruptura que caracteriza la relación actual con las diversas tradiciones arquitectónicas, evaluando la revolución moderna que protagonizaron las vanguardias y los grandes maestros, así como, las revisiones posteriores. Igualmente se examina la ruptura con ese bagage, analizando hasta qué punto se corresponde nuestro momento histórico con el que fue propio de aquellas vanguardias.

High-end hotels have always been the setting for style and fantasy, a venue to see and be seen. This volume explores a relatively new trend, where major fashion houses take over the running of upscale hostelries.
